名媛直播

Hi,

I was given a '名媛直播 kit' for a secret santa present- it was supposed to be Silver Birch. These 2 seedlings have resulted and I am not sure what to do with them now?


1) Firstly, do they look like silver birch? Or have I loving cultivated some weeds....
2) Do they need to go outside or can they grow inside?
3) I feel I should pot them on somehow as the soil dries out really quickly as it is teabag type netting. Should I cut and ease off the netting and move them both into a little pot with just a little extra compost round, or try and prick them out and put into 2 pots?
4) Which compost is best? I can only find big bags of bonsai stuff but will only need a tiny bit
5)As a bonsai complete beginner (though have a lot of other house plants and do gardening) is there a basic beginners guide book that you would recommend?


Any advice would be very much appreciated, thank you!

Apologies for the typo, I can't see how to edit!

I kinda liked it; sounds like you're angry with the plant

1: yes it looks like a silver bit....birch
2: allways outside.
3: just up pot to a bigger pot without disturbing the roots.
4: any standard potting mix or good compost from your garden will do fine.
5: there are a thread here about good books. You will have a lot of time to find literature and study up. The bonsai yourney begins in a decade or so. Until then you are just growing a tree.
